The government has apologised to the families of dead nuclear workers whose body parts were taken for testing without the knowledge of families.
The Redfern Inquiry was ordered when it emerged in 2007 that tissue was taken from 65 workers at Sellafield in Cumbria between 1962 and 1992
Publishing the report, Energy Secretary Chris Huhne said it was "regrettable" that tissue was taken.
Families have demanded to know who authorised the tissue testing.
